وَمِنَ
النَّاسِ
مَن
يَشْرِي
نَفْسَهُ
ابْتِغَاءَ
مَرْضَاتِ
اللَّهِ
وَاللَّهُ
رَءُوفٌ
بِالْعِبَادِ
wa-mina n-nāsi man yashrī nafsahu btighāʾa marḍāti llāhi wa-llāhu raʾūfun bi-l-ʿibādi
And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure of Allah: And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees.
— Abdullah Yusufali
And among the people is he who sells his soul seeking the pleasure of Allah, and Allah is most kind to [His] servants.
